Rimini presents the 67th edition of the music festival Sagra Musicale Malatestiana, one of the oldest and most prestigious Italian music festivals. The festival opens once again the doors to great music, hosting important international symphony orchestras, conductors and soloists, as well as to new projects where original music is intertwined with other arts.
Among the guests: famous artists such as Martha Argerich and Stefano Bollani, internationally renowned orchestras such as the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, the Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra, the MDR Symphony Orchestra, the RAI - National Symphony Orchestra and prestigious directors such as Yannik Nezet-Seguin and Valery Gergiev.
To the myth of Orpheus and the origins of opera will be dedicated the new stage production of the Sagra Musicale Malatestiana, thereby marking a new step in the path of research in the Baroque music carried out in recent years (23rd-24th September).
A series of concerts will focus on Jean Philippe Rameau and the influence exerted by the great French composer throughout Europe with a project that will link the music of the eighteenth century to the celebrations for the fortieth anniversary of Fellini's Casanova (26th - 31st October).
The varied program of musical events that will animate Rimini and the surrounding towns proposing renowned soloists and young talents will be concluded by a piano marathon dedicated to Karlheinz Stockhausen, the undisputed master of twentieth-century music (October 1st).
